=== 503 Example: Opcode Cache Crashes PHP ===

User B complained of 503 errors while using a collaboration application. We used strace to find that PHP was crashing:

  18:06:05.816339 stat("/xxxxx/xxxx/x/xxxx.class.php", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0666, st_size=54285, ...}) = 0 <0.000024>
  18:06:05.817292 brk(0x16e6000) = 0x16e6000 <0.000026>
  18:06:05.817790 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---

Using GNU Debugger to examine the stack backtrace, we found:
  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This shows us the problem is in the opcode cache. We do not know whether the user upgraded the opcode cache, tried a different version of PHP, or disabled the opcode cache, but the issue seems to have been resolved.
